The Skeena Region stretches from the Yukon border to the mid coast, and from the Queen Charlotte Islands to the Interior Lakes District. Covering nearly one-quarter of BC, this vast area is known worldwide for its excellent fishing, spectacular mountains, tranquil wilderness and abundant wildlife. Skeena Region Provincial Parks showcase special features such as coastal fjords, volcanic lava flows, immense glaciers, pristine rivers and the world's largest intact coast temperate rain forest. Wildlife such as Grizzly and Black Bears, Mountain Goats, Mountain Sheep, Killer Whales, Sea Lions, Eagles and Trumpeter Swans abound. With over 5 million salmon returning to the Skeena River each year, and with northern lakes and rivers teaming with trout, char or grayling, the Skeena region is truly a fisherman's paradise.
